What a weekend, Dianna nation! The 2022 Film Independent Spirit Awards were held in Santa Monica this Sunday (March 6, 2022), and it became a very succesful night for Dianna and her Shiva Baby team. The film won the John Cassavetes Award, an award given to the best feature made for under $500,000 (award is given to the writer, director, and producer of the film).

Dianna also presented the award for best editing, which confusingly seemed to be presented during a commercial break along with cinematography and best international film. If you want to read more about the controversial telecast decisions which elicited boos and confusion among the guests, Vanity Fair has a detailed piece over here. There you can also read about the other winners! For the fashion interested, Dianna wore a sparkly chocolate crop top and soaring stilettos, designed by Prada.

It’s a commercial break so everyone got up to mingle… and then, unexpectedly, Dianna Agron came out to present Best Editing during the break. (Very Oscars.) The winner is Joi McMillon for ZOLA (source)

There’s definitely not a lack of content from the night, as we have been blessed with almost 200 HQ photos from the event itself, a gorgeous portrait session and several videos! I have also made screen captures from all clips I could find, and added those to our gallery as well. You can find all the new video clips in our video archive, big thanks to our friend fellintodianna for the one of Dianna presenting (FYI – the red carpet video page contains two separate clips.)

No videos found.

I have sorted the photos into different albums for easier viewing, and you can find all the links below the previews. If you’d rather simply browse all new additions, the event/photoshoot pics starts from this page and the screen captures from here. In total there’s more than 700 new photos and screen caps added, and I hope to have even more in the coming days!

Hello and happy weekend Dianna nation! This is quickly becoming the best Easter ever, with new Dianna content every single day. In Creative Company shared their ‘Shiva Baby’ interview on Youtube yesterday, where they had a Q&A with writer & director Emma Seligman, Dianna and her co-stars Rachel Sennott and Molly Gordon. You can check it out below.

PS: Due to the low quality of the recent videos (zoom quality is sadly not the same as HD quality, but we’re grateful to have any content at all during this pandemic!), I have decided to not add any more screen captures to our gallery. However, if you want caps from a certain interview, drop us an email or tweet and we will get it done for you.

Earlier this month, Lola Adesioye sat down with Emma Seligman, Rachel Sennott & Dianna to discuss their film Shiva Baby (which will be out on VOD and in selected theatres April 2nd). You can watch the full interview below, and screen captures have been added to our gallery! Sadly these are zoom quality and not real HD, but it’s better than no Dianna content 😉

Emma Seligman’s very queer, very Jewish Shiva Baby follows Danielle, who runs into her sugar daddy at a Jewish funeral service with her parents. Told largely within the claustrophobic confines of one house with an unsettling energy, the film dances maniacally, with a caustic Danielle scarcely navigating the trenches of obligatory niceties, as she lurches between the grasp of her doting parents, high-school sweetheart Maya and sugar daddy in attempts to retain a semblance of stability and identity.

A couple of days ago, Dianna did an interview for ET Canada with Emma Seligman and Rachel Sennott to promote “Shiva Baby”. You can watch Dianna’s parts below thanks to our friend @fellintodianna, and screen captures are up in our gallery!

With ‘Shiva Baby’ hitting selected theatres and VOD this Friday, Dianna did a zoom interview with Breakfast Television Toronto yesterday morning. She got disconnected for a minute or two, but keep watching, as she eventually gets her computer/wifi sorted 😉 You can watch the segment below, and as usual, find screen captures in our gallery! I’m really loving this new hair color.

In preparation for the premiere of ‘The Laureate’ next month at the Berlinale 2021, our gallery has now been updated with the first official poster, behind the scenes photos and HD screen captures from the very first teaser trailer for the film (which you can watch below if you haven’t seen it yet!). The Covid-19 pandemic will unfortunately greatly affect how much the cast will be able to promote the film, but we still hope we’ll get a fair share of new Dianna content the coming month. *Fingers crossed*

If you’re interested, you can also view a special ‘A Director’s View’ featurette over at youtube, in which Writer/Director William Nunez talks about The Laureate in New York City before it went into production.

Set against the glamorous backdrop of Britain’s roaring ’20s, The Laureate tells the story of young British War Poet Robert Graves, who is married with four children when he meets and becomes romantically involved with Laura Riding, a writer from America. Defying the conventions of polite society, Riding moves in with Graves and his wife living as a menage a tois. Then with the arrival of strappingly handsome Irish poet Geoffrey Phibbs, the arrangement becomes a menage a quatre. But soon tensions and rivalries become so fraught that Graves is a suspect for attempted murder.

Directed by William Nunez, and co-starring Tom Hughes, Laura Haddock, Julian Glover, Patricia Hodge, Christien Anholt & Fra Fee, The Laureate is set to have its premiere at the Berlinale 2021’s Industry Event from March 1–5!
